HTL Wien 10, Technical school in Favoriten, Vienna, Austria
HTL Wien 10 is a technical school located at Ettenreichgasse 54 with modern laboratories and specialized workshops for engineering education. The building spans multiple departments offering practical learning in various technical fields.
The school was founded in 1889 as k.u.k. Staatsgewerbeschule to address the shortage of skilled workers during Vienna's industrial expansion. Its creation reflected the city's economic growth and need for trained professionals.
The school works closely with local industries and regularly hosts events where students showcase their projects and connect with professionals from various technical fields. These connections shape school life and open doors for graduates entering their careers.
The school features modern laboratories and practical workshops where students work on real projects and gain hands-on experience. Visitors should plan ahead since facilities are primarily used for classes during school hours.
The 10 kW photovoltaic system, installed in September 1989 for the school's centenary, is one of Vienna's oldest grid-connected solar plants. Its 196 monocrystalline modules on a 45° south-facing roof produced about 8,500 kWh per year, enough for three households. The 2014 citizens' solar plant covers roughly 70% of the school's electricity demand.
